There is an interesting story of who invented Rounders. We are now going back to 1903. It was a modest building which was housing ‘Spalding’s Baseball Guide”. Mr. A.G. Spalding was the publisher. He was always of the opinion that baseball had evolved in America and it was out and out an American game! He would not budge an inch from this belief. An Englishman, a newspaper writer, Henry Chadwick, was the first to cover baseball. He incidentally wrote an analytical story for Spalding’s Baseball Guide, which was directly in contrast to the publisher’s well-articulated belief. He said Baseball was definitely derived form Rounders. He called Chadwick to his room. Spalding: What sort of garbage is this? How dare you write such rubbish in my guide? Chadwick: Sir, Rounders is the parent and Baseball is an offspring inheriting most of the parent’s qualities. The fact that Rounders was played in 16th century and Baseball in 19th century is proof enough to support my writing. Spalding was not satisfied. He was not willing to come down from his stated position that Baseball was “the great American pastime”. He said: Well, I will appoint a commission to find out the origin of Baseball. He did and in 1907 the commission reported that Baseball was in fact a modified game of Rounders and that is was invented by Mr. Abner Doubleday. Today Rounders remains to be a sport mostly for schoolboys and schoolgirls. In 1943, a National Rounders Association was founded, who conduct tournaments and decide on rules and regulations. The NRA is recognized by the British Sports Council and allots grants to aid the sport annually. 
I hope you enjoy playing rounders as much as myself: john @roundersforfun.com. sports humor
